When does a child learn from a smack?

What are the effects on kids when they have not had a smack when they have needed instand correction?
Would kids that have not had a smack have less respect for adults and others? would they become troubled teens due to a lack of diccipline?

ohh dear smaking...please state at the beginning..
that evidence quoted here..can/may/will-be used against you

so saying...only in times of real danger..with those not comprehending words...the three times i did it

when i caught my child sukking on a power cord

attempting..the crossing a busy street
before i taught her the road rules

the third time..cause..i let the dog teach..the lesson
and it snapped...at him...as crankey dogs will do

the first people of these lands believe smaking only drives the problem deeper in...they firmly hold parents should never smack

believing...pa-rents should only* give love
never censure...

that parents make the human...
and society forms..the citisen

unsure if i should watch..*this topic
one should be carefull of comming..[commenting]..
between the parent/child..bond...

the best..is to be the best egsample
is..to have..your child/.. see..
that..we wish...'them..to be

Aussy:“When does a child learn from a smack?”

The only learning is 'this action = pain'.

Aussy:”What are the effects on kids when they have not had a smack when they have needed instand correction?”

No effect. Smacking as a correction instant or otherwise is flawed.

Aussy:”Would kids that have not had a smack have less respect for adults and others? would they become troubled teens due to a lack of diccipline?”

Smacking isn’t how an adult gains respect.

I think it is more than physical consequences, or lack of, for actions that result in a teenager being troubled.

Not smacking is no more likely to make a child troubled or bad if there are other methods of discipline and a lot depends on the relationships formed between parent and child.

There are many influences, including lack of discipline, that might lead a child, depending on their personality, to become disrespectful of others.

Role modelling probably has a greater effect on influencing behaviour than smacking or not smacking.

The over use of smacking might also lead a child to become disprespectful.

Smacking has a place, but it should be used rarely IMO.

The effects of kids not getting smacked are clearly seen in society. More violence, less respect, bigger liars, more vandalism and contempt for the law. The sooky social engineers of the 60's and 70's have proven a total failure. People are dumb enough to ask why we have so much violence now in our communities. No doubt some uni has done a study showing how much distress smacking causes. Just wait for some dingbat to tell you the 'science is settled' People are very gullible.

I think theres a diffrence between a quick smack on the bum when a kids in danger or something and flogging your kids or even just yelling at them all the time. But we realy should avoid hitting kids (and Adults too!)
